OpenGL problem?

[eyerule]

i'm running on WinME, 2400 amd, 1gig of ddr ram, sblive sound card and a geforce 6600GT

 

when i click scan hardware it says that my system failed OpenGL. it has microsoft 1.10 opengl drivers

 

im running on the latest nvidia drivers and i even tried some beta drivers and that didn't work. i don't understand how to get my opengl version to 1.4, as i recall geforce 6600gt supports opengl 1.5

6600gt supports openGL 1.3 if I'm correct, and that should be ok since nvidia cards only need version 1.3... Only Ati cards need 1.4 (correct me if I'm wrong)....

the weird part is that the game sees it as mircrosoft opengl 1.1 and i have the latest nvidia drivers. this game is driving me nuts

try uninstalling your drivers and installing them again... maybe try using drivercleaner...

Windows Me is a very old OS. And crappy one in my opinion. Although is still supported by the game publishers, MS does not provide anymore WHQL certification for Win 9x (95/95/Me) drivers. Your troubles might come from there. Your PC is perfectly able to run a Windows XP, you should consider upgrading your OS if you can afford it. Don't forget to try to get a cheap OEM license. In France you can have an OEM license by buying a CPU, a graphic card, an HDD, an optical player/recorder, RAM and floppy drive; it should be quite the same conditions in other countrys.

Anyway, did try to run the game?

It's the other way round- Ati 1.3 and nVidia 1.4

Personally, I'd go back to Win98 (ME is awful, but XP is a bloated mess).

 

But yeah, in the long term there's no alternative to XP. Driver support for Win98 probably isn't going to stick around much longer.

Have you checked to see if your onboard graphic card has been disabled?

 

had the same problem with my sound card not being detected, even though it worked fine, it wasn't detected until I went into the bios and disabled the onboard sound.

 

You might have the same problem.

download the 66.93 and uninstall the drivers that came with the card.

all nvidia cards since the 5200 support OpenGL 2.0 when the drivers are finished

i'll try uninstalling the drivers and using them again. my motherboard doesn't have a build in graphics card, so that shouldn't be the problem. i don't like how winxp looked i bought win2k. but right now it's screwed. have to reinstall it again. lucky i don't have anything important there
